Was snowed in after the blizzard we had last night/today, so I ordered my wishlist parts for the scoot today. Now wait for them to get here and get to work before ride time gets here...

Yup, finishing up my last woodworking project in my shop, swept for the last time and time to start on the bike. Moved it in before the last 20" of snow fell. Can't wait to get my updated fenders, Agitators and comp sprocket in. May have to wait until after Green Bay beats up the Stealers, though.

Thanks. It was my dad's. I helped him turn wrenches on it as a kid, hasn't been worked on in years. Now I get to turn some wrenches with my son.

I did. I ordered a set of 21/18 Rampage Escalade wheels from Rob at HogPro. Now for the wait...

Thank you. I'm hoping to working on that this summer, when I'm not riding...


More stuff showed up today. Waiting for everything to get here to minimize the amount of time my car will have sit outside the garage...
